Fire Damage Update
by Dave Shearer 16 Apr '10

16 Apr '10

GSL Slip renters and Marina Users. I have talked to Union Pacific today. We did not talk about specifics regarding any claims you may have. But we were able to correct contact information for Union Pacific. That information has been corrected on the Current Storm Damage Report at www.gslmarina.com (on the NEWS tab). UP will be sending out claim letters next Monday based on the information we provided them. There is no guarantee our information was totally correct though. UP suggested you to start getting estimates on the damage and wait for the letters. If you do not see something from them next week, please call the number provided in the above mentioned report. Or if you have concerns whether your damage was listed, please feel free to call them. Please realize that I, nor PARKS, are part of the loop on you claims. You and Union Pacific will need to work out all details of any claim you may wish to pursue. Demolition of the Parks building will begin next week. As soon as the building is down, we will keep the park open until sunset each night. Until then we are still on the 5pm closures. As a slip renter, this does not affect you as long as you have the pass or key. But it may affect your guests who want to visit after 5pm.

Antelope Island Field Trip
by Dave Shearer 07 Apr '10

07 Apr '10

GSL Slip Renters and Marina Users. I am sorry to announce we will have to postpone the Antelope Island Field trip to a later date. We are still pressed on some issues related to the marina fire. Parks and Risk Management are determined to replace all items and building asap so that we will not be interrupted or hindered on our services or maintenance duties. We hope to have a rescheduled date announced very soon. We may even change venues to the Spiral Jetty if need be. On the good side, we may push our luck and try to get water on to the docks this Sunday. Don't get excited yet. We are watching forecasted low temperatures closely. But it is a goal. One last note for those in Unsecured Dry Storage. It is possible that the new maintenance building will be located on the slab that is currently Unsecured Storage. If this does happen we will relocated unsecured storage to where the maintenance building stands right now. We are not sure what will actually happen at this point. But that is where plans are leaning right now. Stay posted to www.gslmarina.com for updates on all this information. Dave Shearer Harbormaster Great Salt Lake State Marina 801-209-9142

Slip Payments
by Dave Shearer 04 Apr '10

04 Apr '10

GSL Slip Renters Many of you are on "Autopay" status where we just charge your cards each month for slip payments. Monday is the scheduled day for charging credit cards. But with our phone lines down, we do not know when we will be able to charge them. Please bear with us this week. All other facilities are up-and-running at the marina. This includes the restrooms and showers. Our internet is working so we can receive and respond to emails in a timely manner. But we do not have phone lines. No point in trying to call the marina office until further notice. Also, please note that April begins Summer rates for slip rentals and dry storage rentals. Don't forget to check the "Storm Damage Report - Current" on www.gslmarina.com We have completed the list of damage due to the fire and storm. We think we have done a fairly thorough job identifying damage. But if you had property in secured or unsecured storage, you may still want to come out and check your property thoroughly. The State and Union Pacific are working out procedures for claims due to this fire. We should know in the next few days what that procedure and contact information will be. That information will be posted on the "Storm Damage Report - current" on www.gslmarina.com as soon as we know. One last note. Many slip renters are reporting soot and ash on and in their boats. So, if you haven't visited the marina yet, be prepared for that possibility when you open your boats. Dave Shearer Harbormaster Great Salt Lake State Marina 801-209-9142
